  • In recent years, Unreal Engine has been increasingly included in the animation process produced in the studio. In this case, there will be more than one of main software, and it is very important to accurately transfer data between the software and Unreal Engine. In animation data, not only the animation data of the character but also the animation data of objects interacting with the character must be individually produced and transferred. Most of the objects that interact with the character have a condition of constraints with the part of character. In this paper, I tried to stipulate the production process for extracting animation data of constrained objects, and to analyze why users experience difficulties due to the complexity of the regulations in the process of executing them. And based on the flowchart prescribed for user convenience, I created a program using a Python script to prove the user's convenience. Finally, by comparing the results generated according to the manual flowchart with the results generated through the script command, it was found that the data were consistent.

  • Digital art creation has become an indispensable part of today's society, but traditional digital art production methods have been difficult to meet the growing creative needs of artists. Therefore, this study takes the cloud series works of artist Morten Lasskogen as an example and explores the application value of 3D Max and Unreal Engine in digital art created by analyzing the lighting effects in the works of art. This research aims to form reference materials through actual case analysis and provide artists with more efficient ideas for digital art creation.

  • Uncanny Valley is a theory proposed by Japanese robot engineer Masahiro Mori in 1970, and refers to the point where the likability drops sharply when the appearance of a robot becomes very similar to a human being without a fully equipped robot. In this study, the theory of existing literature, related papers, and experimental data were analyzed to examine the Uncanny Valley effect that affects character design. The purpose of this study is to analyze whether the Uncanny Valley effect is applied to modeling virtual characters distributed in the Unreal Engine Marketplace. To this end, 15 characters were selected based on the similarity with humans in the Marketplace of the Unreal Engine, and similarity with humans and likability were investigated and analyzed. As a result of the experiment, it was confirmed that the Uncanny Valley effect was similarly applied to virtual character modeling, and through this, guidelines for the use of characters by indie game developers or individual developers using Unreal engines were presented. In addition, through result analysis, we tried to examine the direction to be pursued when designing characters.

  • In the game industry, traditional game development way was to develop a game engine in advance before developing game content. This has the disadvantage is the high cost of developing the game engine. Further, there is a problem that the game content are not developed unless the game engine is prepared in advance. In order to solve these problems, the game industry has recently selected a method of purchasing a license for a commercial engine, which is a method for improving the game content development productivity, rather than concentrating on game engine development. In this paper, we describe a game object and the structure in Unity and Unreal Engine 4. We compared the editor interface and the supported development languages in the two game engines. We also implemented a First-Person Shooter game to compare how the player's configuration and event handling differ from the two game engines.

  • There have been many studies to improve the efficiency of the CG production process, but it was not easy to overcome the problem that it was difficult to check the result in the middle of work and it took a lot of time for rendering. However, as the possibility of using Unreal Live Link, which can check the result in real-time, is increasing, expectations for improving the efficiency of the production process are rising. This study analyzed the efficiency of the 3D animation production process using Unreal Live Link. To this end, modeling, rigging, animation, and layout work were done in Maya, and the final output image sequence was rendered in Unreal Engine through Unreal Live Link. And the difference between this production process and the existing production process in which the final output image sequence is rendered in the 3D software itself was compared and analyzed. As a result of the analysis, unlike the traditional 3D animation production process, it was possible to check the final work result in real-time by proceeding with the work through a high-quality viewport screen, and it was found that the efficiency of work was maximized by deriving the final result through real-time screen capture. Recently, the use of game engines in the 3D animation and film industry is gradually increasing, and the efficiency of work is expected to be maximized if Unreal Live Link is used.

  • The paper provides an efficient method for generating water crown animation. Compared to general liquid simulation, water crown animation requires tremendous computational loads. Tackling the problem, we propose a novel geometry based approach with procedural texture. Unreal engine is utilized to construct material and handle the geometric mesh combined with water texture. The experimental results demonstrate our method achieves effective performance for realistic water crown animation.

  • A simulation game represented the real world and situation as a video games, In the first time, this simulation game primarily applied to military practice areas and then it's applied areas were extended to strategy, flighting, racing, life areas. In this paper, we developed the driving simulator that operate the 3-axis sensor attached driver's handle which could forward/backward moving, control of direction, and transmit of gear in the virtual space. For more the realities of the situation and accuracy of the location and speed, we adopted the 3-axis sensing informations, Unreal engine4' and Blueprint.

  • Interior Mapping has been used to reduce graphics resources. In this paper, rendering speed(FPS), the number of polygons, shader complexity and each resource size of Interior Mapping were compared to those of actual modeling in order to examine the performance of 3D games when the technology is adapted by utilizing Unreal Engine 4. In addition, for the efficient application, the difference in performance according to the resolution and detail of cube map texture was verified.
